Signups on a first come, first served basis.
What To Expect: The DM will cover all the basic procedures of rolling dice and walk players through role-playing a character. The DM will aim every story to “PG” themes including heroism, teamwork, overcoming adversity, creative problem-solving, grace under pressure, and honor. The DM will require all players to show respect to everyone in the room, and will be encouraging being patient, listening to others, and willingly collaborating. The DM will not allow abusive language, derogatory terms, or “I was just joking” aimed at anyone in the room, (although monsters and villains are fair game.) The DM will be basing all in-game races, classes, rules, and mechanics on the Dungeons & Dragons 5th Edition books. The use of violence, dishonesty, conniving, and magic allowed only in role play. The DM may or may not give second chances.
To Be Ready for the Game: The phone number of a parent (or responsible adult) is required prior to the game starting for minor children. A parent is required to indicate if a minor child is allowed to walk home unescorted from the game shop. Players are required to have all cell phones, tablets, & laptops turned off during gameplay.
Players are encouraged, to bring their own dice, paper (ie. a journal), and/or pencils. Players are also encouraged to own a copy of the Player’s Handbook D&D 5th edition. All of these supplies are available for purchase at The Missing Piece.

Game of the Month: Spirit Island
2022-06-04 12:00 - 16:00 | The Missing Piece, 4707 California Ave SW B, Seattle, WA, 98116, United States
Summer is at our doorstep, and what better way to celebrate than to get away to a tropical island full of beautiful mountains, lush jungles, thriving wetlands and sandy beaches? Wait, what’s happening? There are ships on the shoreline. Invaders from far off lands are exploring the island, ravaging the land, building towns and cities, and threatening the peaceful indigenous people of the island. They must be driven away at all costs!
Spirit Island is a fully cooperative game where players take on the roles of minor nature spirits fighting to repel determined invaders from settling their beautiful island. Everyone wins or loses together as a team. In short, it’s the polar opposite of the massively popular Catan.
Join us and learn to play the game, or if you already know how, meet new friends to help you defend your lands! We’re playing every Saturday this month from noon to 4pm, and it’s completely free to join in on the fun. If you love the game, great news for you: it’ll be 10% off all month as our Game of the Month special!

Believe us, you’ll never quite feel the thrill of getting your Ultimate ability triggered (rolling five 6’s) from other dice games. It’s an adrenaline rush!
